| Additional information |
Ferdinand II of Tyrol died in 1595, yet the Hall mint continued striking coins in his name for nearly a decade afterward under the administration of his successors. These posthumous issues were not commemorative in any modern sense — they were practical monetary instruments produced because Ferdinand's portrait dies remained legally authorized and commercially trusted in regional trade networks. The 1601–1604 window corresponds to a transitional period before Rudolf II fully consolidated Tirolean monetary administration into the broader Habsburg framework.
The Davenport and Moser-Tursky references cite distinct die pairings across this span, meaning MT#313 and MT#317 represent discrete emissions rather than variants of a single production run.
